Green, Digital & Demand-Driven Supply Chain Management (G3D)

The Green, Digital & Demand-Driven Supply Chain Management (G3D) Area of Excellence is a multidisciplinary research group in the field of supply chain and operations management. It is articulated around 4 main research sub-areas:

Green Supply Chain Management

Our research aims to revisit the operations management problems with the consideration of environmental aspects (environmental regulations, customers’ environmental awareness, social welfare, etc.). In particular, we focus on the following problems:

For companies, how to rethink the supply chain and product decisions while trading-off environmental considerations and economic performance?

For regulators, how to design an efficient environmental regulation to improve the social welfare?

Digital Supply Chain Management

The emergence of new picking technologies (e.g., IoT / Internet of Things), transfer technologies (blockchain) and big data analytics is a big opportunity for companies to improve their processes of data transactions, demand forecasting, and planning. However, the adoption of these technologies represents several challenges.

How to adapt traditional planning methods to make better use of new technologies (sensors, IoT, blockchain)?

What is the impact of new technologies on the design and management of supply chains (production, warehousing, transportation)?

How to use big data and business analytics to improve supply chain and business performance?

Business value of Information Technology

Our research examines how IT investments affect economic activities. This study of the impact of IT investigates the following problems:

How does IT infrastructure affect strategic management (mergers and acquisitions, business flexibility, innovation, environmental strategy, and corporate entrepreneurship) to increase firm performance?

How does Internet technology enable the firm to develop operational capabilities to increase operational performance?

How do firms learn to develop social media capabilities to innovate, and improving customer experience and performance?

Matching supply with demand

An efficient management of supply chains requires a deep understanding of market and demand structure and a fine modeling of the relationship between supply chain decisions and customer demand. Our research examines the following problems:

How to integrate demand and revenue management with supply chain decisions?

How to rethink supply chain design and management decisions with the consideration of endogenous demand?
